Do you have a blog or a myspace account? Sometimes it feels good to vent by writing. I'm really sorry you're feeling this way. I don't really know what to say but I do know that bad relationships are like poison. Even at a young age stress can effect your heart - it's a woman thing. It effects men differently. If you don't feel happy and balanced I would say get out of that situation if you can afford it. You'll probably be much happier with out the extra weight and then maybe you can use your extra time to look for work that you enjoy. I'm kinda down right now too because my husband is leaving for Iraq in less than a week and just today one of our main hot water pipes broke in our new house that we just spent $8000 renovating. In fact we just reserved a hotel room for the weekend so we can all take showers! lol. I know this is a temporary problem compared to yours because our insurance will be hooking us up and my husband will be coming back and all but I know what it's like to be stressed out for a long period of time over things that are seemingly out of control. If you ever want to talk, PM me and I'll give you my E-mail address. :) I hope you are feeling better today!

Go ahead and cry. You'll find out that crying renews you in some ways. I used to cry, deep in the night, when everyone else if fast asleep. I totally pour my heart out and after that I feel my strength and bravery come creeping in. If your job tires you down, take a breather go have a weeklong vacation. The place maybe just a few kilometers from home or it may be just home. No need to spend much for the vacation. Do this while your job hasn't burn you out yet. Once burn out has taken hold of you, you'll find that you hate your job so much you couldn't take it anymore.
